The final Noble lecture on "The Ethics of Jesus" was delivered by Rev. H. C. King, D.D., LL.D., last night in the Fogg Lecture Room, upon the special subject "The Great Motives Underlying the Sermon on the Mount; Summary of the Whole Discussion; Has Jesus an Ethical System?"

The four great motives underlying Jesus's teaching in the Sermon on the Mount are: First, the unity of the inner life,--every part is so bound together that good or evil anywhere permeates the whole. Second, the fulfillment of the law of duty. Third, the brotherhood of man. Here Dr. King emphasized the fact that we are all brothers regardless of position, nationality or race, and that we must act as such. Fourth, God is our Father. This is the great motive underlying all other motives; it is the conviction out of which the others spring that love is at the heart of the world.

These four motives apply to all the teachings of Jesus and in them we have a summary of the whole discussion. The one ethical truth continually recurring is that love is at the heart of the University; therefore love alone is life. An ethical system in the sense of a modern discussion of technical, theoretical problems Jesus certainly does not have; but an ethical system in the sense of thoroughly unified and consistent thinking on life, its end, spirit, motives and significance, he most certainly does have.
